Treating parts of fabric to resist dye is a great way to come up with some beautiful and eye-catching color effects, and this wax-resist scarf tutorial from A Beautiful Mess is a great way to get started!

Have you heard of wax-resist or batik-dyeing? If not, you’re in for a treat! This was my absolute favorite medium during high school. I made some giant butterfly wall tapestries and a wrap skirt! It’s super easy and there are endless possibilities to customize the craft.
